For Flute, Clarinet In Bb, and Piano. Par JALBERT PIERRE. Triple Set was commissioned by the Flute/Clarinet Duos Consortium, an organization of 17 groups which will give the premiere performances of the work. I’ve always been fascinated by the flute and clarinet, and when I was approached by my colleagues at Rice (Leone Buyse and Michael Webster) to write a piece for flute, clarinet and piano (I’m a pianist myself), for the Flute/Clarinet Duos Consortium, I was happy to oblige. Both of my sons also play the clarinet, so many of these sounds are around me all the time. The piece is in three contrasting movements. The first movement, Driving, marked “With great energy”, is rhythmically propelled forward by the piano’s muted strings and the flute and clarinet playing at first in rhythmic unison, then each taking a turn at solos while the other participates in the accompanimental syncopations. The second movement, Still, is marked “Timeless” and slowly unfolds its melodic and harmonic ideas. The third movement, Relentless, is a kind of 6/8 scherzo, which vigorously and relentlessly propels itself forward to the end, with just two minor interruptions of quasi-cadenza like passages for flute and clarinet duo. - Pierre Jalbert/ Répertoire / Flûte Traversière, Clarinette et Piano

Par KIM SINAE. Five Variations on a Korean Hymn Tune, based on 'God's Great Grace It Is Has Brought Us' is suitable for both the concert hall and religious settings. The total length of this work is approximately seven minutes, however, the variations can be mixed and matched at the discretion of the performers if a shorter length is needed./ Répertoire / Flûte Traversière, Clarinette et Piano

Par TCHEREPNINE IVAN. Les cadences en Transition prend sa forme de l'utilisation de passages solos à des moments clés de la pièce qui servent de liens entre les différentes sections de la pièce. Le terme Cadenza, ce qui signifie un affichage dramatique, rhétorique d'un instrument solo, est interprété librement. La cadence de piano est interrompue par la clarinette - la flûte est présente dans la cadence de la clarinette et la clarinette empiète sur la cadence de la flûte. La section de l'improvisation contrôlées avant la dernière section est l'aboutissement de ce processus, par lequel les instruments peuvent ' rompre lâches ' dans les passages polyrythmiques libres au sein de l'ensemble./ Répertoire / Flûte Traversière, Clarinette et Piano
